This film is described as a thriller in the local newspaper ad, but in fact it is far from that. This moody picture directed by Josh Apter and Peter Olsen is much better than most of what the comments in this forum would lead a future viewer to believe. Sure, it's not for everybody and, yes, it is strange, but it will stay with you for a while.
The couple on the way to a week end cabin in upstate New York, near the Kaaterskill Falls is in serious trouble. Their relationship is nothing and never will amount to anything. Only after the mysterious hitchhiker enters their lives, that becomes apparent.
In retrospect, Ren and Lyle, the Manhattan couple would never pick up Mitch. There is something more to why they give them the ride and the way they let him stay with them. We realize who the strong one is and how this person manipulates the whole thing to an advantage. The last scene at the Kaaterskill Falls is executed brilliantly.
The three principals act naturally. Hillary Howard is perfect as Ren, the mousy wife. Mitchell Riggs as Mitch, the hitchhiker plays his part well and lastly, Anthony Leslie is fine as Lyle.
The score of the film is excellent.
